I normally update my gcc snapshot once every fortnight.  If there's any
compilation issues let me know.  But I hardly run into any, if at all...

I downloaded the most recent snapshot (03/03) and gave compiling 
a go. After fiddling around getting mpc mpfr and gmp3 recognised, 
I ran in to this:

Personally I just use whatever is the current gcc-snapshot package in 
Ubuntu/Debian, which has always worked for me, but YMMV (and that assumes you 
use Debian/Ubuntu or that your OS has an equivalent package).
